For good

“And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them.”Romans‬ ‭8‬:‭28‬ ‭NLT‬‬

When things go wrong we ask, “what did I do to cause this?” Sometimes it is the result of bad behaviour, other times not.

We want things to go well, we like comfort. However, we do not mature spiritually in comfort as much as we do in handling pain well.

I follow Jodi Erikson Tada on Facebook. She speaks often of pain and hardships. However, she ministers to millions. She was crippled from the neck down after diving into shallow water. She has to depend on others. She paints beautiful pictures with a brush held by her teeth. She preaches regularly on dependence in God alone.

We cannot dictate our circumstances, but we can determine our behaviour, and as a result the effect we have on other.

Today choose wisely how you will live. Amen!
